Just finished our 4th of July weekend getaway and loved the hotel! The staff and housekeeping was very attentive. The rooms were small but worked fine for us! Loved all the windows in the room! The room was very bright, clean, and we always left the windows open since the weather was wonderful there. We had drinks at the hotel bar Secreto Lounge...the bartender Chris was great! Drinks were wonderful especially the Spicy Secreto...my fav! The covered patio in front of the hotel was a great place to relax with a drink in the afternoon and evenings. We will definitely stay there again!

I was very ill during my stay at the hotel due to a cold picked up on an airplane. The staff at the hotel took wonderful care of me by checking on me periodically, providing urgent care directions, providing a thermometer to test my temperature, etc. Both Anne and Brad were very helpful and made me feel well taken care of when I was feeling so sick I just wanted to go home. I got well and really enjoyed the rest of my stay at the friendliest hotel I've ever stayed at.

From start to finish this was a miserable experience. Starting with reservations there were issues. The reservation service cannot handle a reservation from a block of rooms. After many phone calls to the coordinator at the hotel were not returned, I finally reached Teresa who said that she would book my room and cancel the reservations that I had made at their sister hotel the Chimayo which I had made just to have some place to stay for the wedding. Teresa was supposed to send an email verification but of course nothing came. The week before our arrival I received a reminder from the Chimayo about my stay there - obviously Teresa had not cancelled the booking. I immediately called the St. Francis and luckily she had booked us a room there. We arrived on on Friday afternoon and there was one person at the desk who was valiantly trying to check three of us in at the same time, not very successfully! As stated previously there is NO baggage help available. Our friends warned that the A/C had been non existent the night before so we immediately asked for a fan. Sure enough there was no A/C on either night of our stay. Yes the nights are cool but if you open you window you have city light pollution and in our case the air handler outside was running all night even though it was not cooling. We did get half off of our room for the inconvenience but the story is not over yet. I inadvertently left my brushes in the only tiny drawer under the sink. I called on Monday after realizing that they were missing and were told that housekeeping would be contacted. I received no call back. Wednesday I called and spoke to Alder, the same Alder who is answering all of these comments, and she told me that the room was now occupied but that she would put a note in the log for housekeeping to check on Sunday when the current guests left. I waited patiently until Sunday at noon and was told by housekeeping that the brushes had been found on Friday and thrown out!After that I decided that Heritage hotels needed to know what was going on so I called and spoke to someone in Guest Relations. She assured me that someone would call me back....that was Monday and today is Wednesday and I have not heard a word. I give up!I feel sorry for the desk staff who have to deal with all of these complaints. My experience is not unique, every member of the wedding group had similar issues and we all got reductions in our room rate.

This hotel is not worth it, there are other, better hotels in Santa Fe!

We had a 3 night stay in a top floor room with an unobstructed view. It's an old property, the room was just large enough for a queen bed and a sink, with a small room for shower/tub and toilet. If you're needs are to have a quiet room for sleeping, while spending the rest of your time exploring the city, this is a great value. Since it's a very old property with a floor that squeaked with each step, I cannot say whether occupying a lower floor would be as quiet. The desk clerk, Jeremy, was outstandingly accommodating, good communicator, and most pleasant compared to the other desk staff who were less precise and responsive to specific questions. The bar has a top rating, but we found the servers were not very responsive and acted more like models on a catwalk. The room was booked for us through HotWire by a friend with whom we were trying to be close to, and the overall experience was nothing comparable to our favorite in Santa Fe, namely, the Inn on the Alameda, which is admittedly more expensive, but includes an outstanding breakfast and wine hour in late afternoon. You get what you pay for, and this was a good low budget alternative.

We enjoyed the hotel but it was near 90 degrees and we had little or no air condition working in our room. It was uncomfortable and we were up most the nights hot. We enjoyed the location and the staff was good. I would stay again if they get their air working. A little over priced also

This hotel is a short walk to the main attractions around the plaza. You couldn't ask for a better location! The hotel itself is fabulous, and the front desk was so kind and helpful. My friend and I really enjoyed our stay. The only glitch was that I didn't realize that there was a charge to park in their side parking lot. Then when we checked out we had a bill of 20 bucks for parking there for 24 hours. It was a surprise, but did not make me regret our wonderful stay. I would recommend staying there, just know that there is a charge for parking.

The only thing good about this hotel is the location. Room very tiny. Bathroom inadequate. The bedroom was so small that did not have a chair and the closet was also very small. I did not see why this hotel charged this room for way over $200.Also they charge for parking. Never again will stay here.
